  3. Turkey vulture?
  4. Yep, an adult (left) and first-year juvenile (right)
  5. The one on the left actually is a black vulture. The turkey juv looks like it has fuzz on its head, and also the head isn't as dark as the one in the pic. They're similar, but the black is the one here. It's EXTREMELY easy in a pic like this to tell who's who.

  15. *tentatively* Prairie Falcon?


You must never give into despair. Allow yourself to slip down that road, and you surrender to your lowest instincts. In the darkest times, hope is something you give yourself. That is the meaning of inner strength.
